You probably lost the thrust bearing, which in turn unseated the piston-ring seals on both ends of the shaft and caused the oil leaking everywhere. The turbo is trash. I might have to come look at it.
Two bolts hold the turbo to the aluminum pedestal. Four bolts hold the pedestal to the block. There is a Marmon V clamp at the exhaust inlet on the turbine housing. Takes some poking at with a hammer and a prybar to pop the clamp loose.
Time for one of these.

there are two bolts in the middle of the turbo going down through the turbo in the pedistal. You have one half of the pedistal unbolted you need to get the turbo off to get the other 2 off. Look between the exhaust housing and the intake housing. The square thing has 2 bolts going through it.

I know this is a turbo swap, but the first few pages are instructions and pictures for removing the stock turbo. Hope it helps.

No, all 6 bolts are vertical. You must remove the turbo before removing the pedistal, if you have the two long bolts out of the turbo it should just lift right up if you have the marmon clamps d/c and seperated.
